Philadelphia Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni has seemed to pour cold water over a potential feud with host Angelo Cataldi of local sports talk radio station WIP.
“I know what I said on Saturday, and that’s in good fun too,” Sirianni explained during his Monday appearance on Cataldi’s program, per the Barrett Sports Media website. “I enjoy coming on this show and talking to you guys, but hey, at the end of the day too, I’m gonna stick up for my brother.”
Sirianni was referencing how he called Cataldi out over the host’s criticism of Eagles defensive coordinator Jonathan Gannon shortly after Saturday’s 38-7 thrashing of the New York Giants in the divisional round of the postseason tournament.
“Sometimes I have to hear some things about Jonathan Gannon, and I don’t know if it’s you guys,” Sirianni responded to a question delivered by WIP reporter Eliot Shorr-Parks, as shared by Jordan Bondurant of Barrett Sports Media. “Might be more other people. I won’t say names — Angelo — right?”
